Sorry guys, English is not my first language..
I don't quite understand what the letter is about in detail ...
Can anyone make the story short? Thank you very much!

I have a 2008 CPO 335i, when I purchased my car it already has done the HPFP recall...So am I effected in this case?
And my friend just blew a turbo on his car, and he got the turbo replaced under CPO warranty today....But he even doesn't have to pay for $50....I don't know why...is it because of this lawsuit??

Ok Folks I Contacted BMW NA in regards to the case for the turbo chargers specifically.

Turbochargers were not originally included in the emissions warranty and if the case gets approved will be.

If approved, the turbochargers will be warranty for 8 years from the in services date or 82k miles which ever comes first.

The 1 Year / 12k miles will be an add on to the emissions warranty for the specific component wastegates / turbochargers.

In my case my wastegates were already determined to be the cause of my Turbo boost Low problem, which I never fixed since they wanted 6k, the women Paige from BMW NA said so long as I keep the mileage below the 82k miles I will be good to go if the case is approved.

Everyone else is fucked at 62k right?

Maybe not. There are several other states that follow the Ca emissions warranty. Check your book to see if your state is included.

However, in the fine print of the settlement agreement, the turbos are covered due to defect in wastegate. Is this a possible loop hole for BMW to say turbo failure was caused by something else and then make us pay?

I am located in NY, and BMW NA is telling me 82k miles, They did ask for my vin to verify. I should have asked if it was across the board. Now they did reference the site. My suggestion is the call BMW NA, I still plan on sending an e-mail so I have something in writing to pledge my case in march.

If I want to speak to BMW of North America regarding my car, the recall, or my HPFP extended warranty, who do I contact?
You should contact BMW Customer Relations at 1(800) 525-7417 or through e-mail customerrelations@bmwusa.com.

Please do not contact the Court or BMW NA about the settlement. As a putative member of the Settlement Class, you are represented by Settlement Class Counsel, and BMW NA cannot provide you with legal advice pertaining to your rights under the settlement.

Wastegate rattle would be a defect in the wastegate warranting turbo replacement.

I have 32K miles now. but time limit out of warranty. I got turbos replaced due to same low boost issue right before my 4yr mark. BMW sure did monumentally screw up with these Turbo engines. Reliability is complete shit if you ask me. just make shit that doesn't break and keep your money IMO. If its the money I wanted, I wouldn't have bought the car to begin with. So much for ultimate driving machine. Just make it reliable.

any updates on this?> I am now getting 30ff code for low boost and the wastegates have the rattle. Called BMW USA today and they told me they have no idea wtf i'm talking about, but my parts guy at the dealership knew about it... Anything set in stone yet?

Thats the preliminary word... 8 year/82k mile warranty on the associated wastegate parts... But it wont kick in until the final courtroom decision is made. Earliest possible date of that is Mid-April of 2012. So basically, if you have an issue now, you either park the car and wait for the decision (and hope that they decide to cover it), keep driving it with the issues and casue damage to the car, or get it fixed on your dime.

Update on my situation. I had wastegate hoses that were starting to weaken, crack, and pinch (thank god) that was causing my issue. I had all the lines replaced and the car is like new again! Just a public service announcement to all of those that are having wastegate issues, noises, and loss of boost with CEL - check the easiest stuff first! Worn, cracked, or pinched wastegate hoses will mimic some symptoms of a bad wastegate, or one thats going bad.

How many miles on your car when you brought it in to have the wastegates replaced.

59K miles for me.

Mine was built in NOV 06 and turbos were replaced due to wastegate rattle.

Dealer or private sale? I would take it to the dealership and discuss with your SA.

In the midst of this proposed settlement, I brought my 07 335i prior to the end of the warranty (45K miles) and got on record about rattle under my dash that sounded like chipmunks. They could not reproduce it, then.

By the time I brought my ride in for its regularly scheduled maintenance, I was totally out of regular warranty but took it in, anyway, with the intent of getting the HPFP replaced. I also talked to my new SA about checking the chipmunks under the dash, while the car was in for maintenance, so he kept the car overnight to check.

Bottom line, I got new turbos, a software upgrade, and HPFP replacement even though I hadn't had any trouble for the past 56K miles when I had my first HPFP replacement at 2.5K miles.

I also had to pay for my scheduled maintenance since the vehicle was out of warranty, but I like to pay as I go instead of buying some extended warranty...but, that's just me...
